Old Time New Year Calls In New York 1866
In Memories of a Publisher G H Putnam notes that New York kept Dutch era New Year visits in 1866 with women staying home and men and youths making 5 to 15 minute calls. A diary entry records thirty five calls on January 1 1866 including an exchange about sleet weather and frugal carriage use. By the late 1880s New Year calls had faded into a tradition of the past.
